In a British movie magazine I read that someone had threatened to beat up the director if she made him cry. The movie is not so much about The Iron Lady, as it is about her aging and the pain of letting go. Personally, I was hooked by the episode on the Falklands War, but was also touched by the loss of one of her dear colleagues. Her youth and family life is summarized nicely throughout the movie, and it reports dutifully why she hated debts and trade unions. Not a single scene from the university! On the other hand, we don’t get much about Thatcherism, that’s a pity. But Meryl Streep never makes you disappointed, and it’s all very nice with ambitious scenery and very pleasant photo. Expect nothing, and be happily surprised!
